What happens when the moon is directly between the Earth and Sun?
Answer: When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth.
Explanation: When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon. During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon. There are two kinds of lunar eclipses: A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon and Sun are on opposite sides of Earth. A partial lunar eclipse happens when only part of Earth's shadow covers the Moon.
Explanation:
The lunar shadow is shown on earth and is known as a solar eclipse

PLEASE HELP!!!! We Wear the Mask
By Paul Lawrence Dunbar
We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,—
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile
And mouth with myriad subtleties,
Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.
We smile, but oh great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile,
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!

Sympathy
By Paul Laurence Dunbar
I know what the caged bird feels, alas!
When the sun is bright on the upland slopes;
When the wind stirs soft through the springing grass,
And the river flows like a stream of glass;
When the first bird sings and the first bud opens,
And the faint perfume from its chalice steals—
I know what the caged bird feels!
I know why the caged bird beats his wing
Till its blood is red on the cruel bars;
For he must fly back to his perch and cling
When he fain would be on the bough a-swing;
And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars
And they pulse again with a keener sting—
I know why he beats his wing!
I know why the caged bird sings, ah me,
When his wing is bruised and his bosom sore,—
When he beats his bars and he would be free;
It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings—
I know why the caged bird sings!

In your opinion, why did branch Rickey ask Jackie Robinson to not fight back against discrimination why was this considered having "guts" how would this idea be treated today
Answer:
Jackie Robinson was asked not to fight back against discrimination because it was hard enough for Robinson to get to the spot he was in, considering he was a black man. This was considered "guts" because it is difficult not to stand up for yourself, especially in the eye of the public. However, being in the eye of the public was exactly why he could not stand up for himself; he could not react or his actions would be turned against him. This idea could be treated a multitude of ways today. The idea of not reacting could be seen as both strong will or just being a pushover.

Question
Which lines from this passage best illustrate the relationship between the Wife of Bath and the Friar?
Answer:
it’s a
Explanation:
The first option "Well, Ma'am,' he said," as God may send me bliss, / This is a long preamble to a tale... "All right," she said," It's just as you prefer, / If I have license from this worthy friar." best illustrate the relationship between the Wife of Bath and the Friar.
Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" consists of several tales told by the group of pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. These pilgrims are from diverse backgrounds and they would take turns telling stories, which makes up "The Canterbury Tales".
The Friar, part of the group, interjected when the Wife of Bath was about to tell her tale. This was met with a sharp rebuke from the Summoner, who declared that Friars have the tendency to butt in or disrupt when they are not expected to. But the Wife of Bath did not utter a word for the intrusion. After their host told the squabbling Friar and Summoner to stop their bickering, the Wife humbly asked for permission from the Friar. Through the discourse between the two, judging from the way they talk to each other, we can assume that the first option correctly illustrates the relationship between the two. The given excerpt is from the Prologue of the Wife's Tale.Chaucer's "Tales" tells the made-up stories of the pilgrims as a way to pass their time. And through the way the Friar and the Wife address each other, we can say that the first option is the correct answer.

Why were the Battles of Saratoga a significant moment in the American Revolutionary War?
a.) They took trade and supply options from the colonial side.
b.) The British defeats shifted the war back to New England.
c.) They led to France entering the war on the colonial side.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The Battles of Saratoga were a significant moment in the American Revolutionary War because they ultimately resulted in France entering the war on the side of the American colonists. Therefore, option C is correct.
The British forces, led by General John Burgoyne, launched an offensive campaign in 1777 to gain control of the Hudson River Valley, which would have effectively split the New England colonies from the rest of the colonies. However, Burgoyne's army was ultimately defeated in two crucial battles at Saratoga, New York.
The American victory at Saratoga was a turning point in the war. It boosted American morale and demonstrated to the world that the American colonists were capable of standing up against the powerful British military.
